@Alan-Kilborn

but you had to post in several posts, for me as a lazy person that would have already been the exit point. :-D

as I already had the data! :-)

I wonder if this is worth a full page on @PeterJones Npp User Manual site?

Cheers.

@Michael-Vincent ,

It would be technically possible.

It would have more weight behind it if someone other than me were to make an official npp-usermanual request on github… especially a normal user like @zahra-ayat , rather than a frequent contributor to the forum.

First, PJ will not appreciate it being called his site. :-)

Second, it might be worthy, but if judged to be so, then I would recommend a more rigorous approach to collecting and formatting it, such as: grabbing the change.log file out of every release’s portable archive, combining, formatting, blahblah. It could be automated, I suppose.

My archive was for me, and it slightly changed format as time evolved, so it isn’t rigorous.

I think that request is this one?: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9745

Hello, @zahra-ayat, @ekopalypse, @alan-kilborn, @michael-vincent, @peterjones and All,

The magic link is :

http://download.notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/

Explore each main sub-folder, then each sub-folder N++ version
Click on a installer link to download any installer version
Open this .exe with 7-zip
Extract the change.log file
Repeat these operations to get all the change.log files, from Notepad_plus.10.bin.zip till Npp.7.9.5.Installer.exe ;-))

Best Regards,

guy038

@guy038

I only see installers from 1.8 onwards, not originating at 1.0. Small issue.
Presume all have the change.log file.
Bigger issue is someone needs to volunteer to extract all of the info and cohesively combine it.

I tried this:

wget --spider -r --no-parent http://download.notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/ 2>&1 | grep -E "(portable|bin)" | grep zip | grep -v Removing | grep -v sig | grep -v x64 | awk "{print $3}"

and after some cleanup, I got this:

SO, one could put that into a file and:

foreach line:
    wget $line
    unzip *.zip change.log
    cat change.log >> master.log
    del change.log *.zip

Or something like that …

Cheers.

Or something like that …

in CMD.exe:

for /f %i in ('more nppvers.txt') do @(wget %i && unzip *.zip change.log & cat change.log >> master.log & del *.zip change.log)

I was able to get (with some cleanup) Notepad++ change logs (when available) from 1.0 - 5.0.3. After that, they get put in subdirectories (ansi\change.log, unicode\change.log) so my little one-liner didn’t quite work.

The resultant file is 751 lines and 39,191 bytes. Where to upload?

Cheers.

Missing 5.1 - 6.9.2, but I have all others.

Of course, just realizing now this is in reverse order and I should have tac (instead of cat) the file of URL’s so that the latest changes would be at the top … oh well …

Cheers.

Hello, @don-ho and All,

You said, on GitHub :

@zahra21 If you rebuild this history, then I will find a place to store it, and continue to maintain it on every release.

Well, we do not have to do anything as @michael-vincent did it for us ;-)). Refer to :

From the oldest to the newest https://gist.github.com/vinsworldcom/3fe7d0cd9c11745e4cb6d0095b4d94c5

Hello, @zahra-ayat, @ekopalypse, @alan-kilborn, @michael-vincent, @peterjones and All,

To @michael-vincent :

Like @Alan-kilborn, and some others, I made my own list of the different contents of the change.log file !

Comparing with your global file, Michael, it seems to me that the N++ version v2.5 is missing

I did notice that this version is not present in the repository but I think that it did exist because I kept the Don Ho’s comments :

02/11/2004
Notepad++ new release - v2.5 :
4 programming languages and various features are added in this release. Some comments for some new features:
About 2 or 3 months ago, I’ve got a feature request to have multi-instance of Notepad++ - Here it is.
But be aware, You may lose your Notepad++ setting since each Notepad++ instance tries to write the setting into the same configure file. It’ll be ok if you change the setting while the unique instance, but not multi-instance.
For the feature to launch Notepad++ by assigning the language for the syntax highlighting, here’s the syntax of command :
notepad++.exe -llanguage file_to_open
ex: c:\program file\Notepad++\notepad++.exe -lxml d:\myproj\proj.vcproj
the valid language string are: c, cpp, java, cs, objc, rc, html, javascript, php, vb, sql, xml, asp, perl, pascal, python, css, lua, batch, ini, nfo, tex, fortran, bash, actionscript and nsis
Note: the parameter is case-sensitive.
Here’re the new features and corrected bugs (from v2.4) :

Add the capacity that user can add his/her extension for each supported language (screenshot).

Add the capacity that user can add his/her keywords for each supported language (screenshot).

Add the new menu entries/features: Insert/Remove TAB, Duplicate or transpose current line, split/join lines and Move Up/Down current line.

Add the support of languages TeX, NSIS, Flash actionscript, Unix/Linux shell script and Fortran.

Add the new font style Underline (screenshot).

Add the Multi-instance functionality: pass the parameter -multiInst (case-sensitive) on the command line to activate it.

Add the feature to open file by resigning the syntax highlighting, that user can pass the parameter -l (case-sensitive) to specify the set language.

Enhance Notepad replacement of View source under IExplorer - the syntax highlighting will be set automatically as HTML (optional in Installer).

Add the selected characters number display on the status bar (screenshot).

Add the total characters number display on the status bar (screenshot).

Correct a bug of the limit number of open file via the open file dialog.

Correct a bug (symbol ^ as operator) for User Language Define System.

Add the shortcut Ctrl-R to Launch the Run Dialog.

Enhance the Run Dialog: the ability to interpreter the environment variables.

Add the Display as UTF-8 menu entry.

Correct an UTF-8 document display bug under Chinese/Korean/Japanese Windows.

So, @Michael-vincent, simply add the part, below, to your global file :

I removed this one in favor of newest to oldest as preferred by @donho in GitHub Issue 9745.

I also have a Perl script that can reverse the order back so I regenerate oldest to newest if anyone prefers that way - or can share the script if anyone thinks it useful. The “scripts” I used (DOS Command Prompt one-liners, with the help of some GnuWIn32 and Git for Windows commands) to obtain the change logs can be found above.

Cheers.

@zahra-ayat

Probably you are talking about the information that a collection of all of the “change.log” files (that come with every release) would provide?

I have collected that information into one file, since 2015; it is currently 800 or so lines, I could post it here if it is of interest.

yes, notepad++ is my favorite program.
i am very glad that i read informations about different versions.
God bless you!

@PeterJones

It would have more weight behind it if someone other than me were to make an official npp-usermanual request on github… especially a normal user like @zahra-ayat , rather than a frequent contributor to the forum.

I think that request is this one?: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9745

yes, its correct.
i asked such helpful informations on this issue.
